Once & Future wrote:About three months ago a friend of a friend told me a disturbing story. She claimed to have died and gone to what she called "heaven." She said it looked very much like a beautiful city here on Earth, but there was bright light everywhere and people were happy and peaceful. I can't remember the specifics, but somehow she realized, as she got closer to the bright light, that it was actually a huge parasite sucking off the souls, feeding off them - YET- all these people were totally happy and content, believing they were in "heaven." They were utterly clueless. When she told me this, I was chilled to the bone. I don't know why, but hearing this had a profound effect on me. I, literally, could not get her story out of my head for weeks.
The story continues. She said that when "they" (I don't know who, but "they" are, but most definitely not good) realized that she'd seen this light for what it was - a parasite - they took her "down into the ground" and tried to put her into some kind of machine-like apparatus which she instinctively knew was going to obliterate her soul. She escaped by becoming a pinpoint of light and moving in these geometric designs so they couldn't get a "lock" on her. She somehow ended up back in her body (note: was this what the machine was meant to do, throw her back into her body??) and then regained consciousness. Her husband said she'd been dead for over an hour. Whether this is true, I cannot confirm, but sheÃs not the type to make up stories.
Once & Future, that's an incredible story! And it doesn't seem that "out there." There are pieces of this same type of experience circulating around here and there.
I don't know if people here are familiar with Jon Rappoport of nomorefakenews.com. He's an investigative journalist but also a very metaphysically savvy guy who provides tons of info at his site about breaking free of societal enslavement - from many different perspectives, from exposing medical fraud to doing interviews with people who are adventurers in human consciousness.
Some time back when I still subscribed to the newsletter he was publishing at the time (and I believe this info is now posted in his archives, which you can access for a reasonable fee - he has TONS of valuable info accumulated there!).....he did an interview with a guy who wanted to remain anonymous. This man was a gifted remote viewer who had taken many journeys in his etheric body and snooped around, found out cool stuff, etc.
On one of his journeys he decided to visit the realm of the dead....or at least, one realm of the dead. He floated into this beautiful, light-filled place with gorgeous churches all around, where people on the surface seemed to be milling about, happy and blissed out.
Then he took a closer look. The people seemed sort of frozen, like they weren't really able to move. They were just sitting there in this virtual "church" looking passive and blissed out.
And then he started looking at some of the "people" roaming about, the church elder types who were dressed in robes and some who looked like they might be angels.
When he got close to them, they were like cardboard cutouts....no real energy to them.
So he appears to have visited one of the "cattle pens' of the afterlife where souls can be diverted. Perhaps this was a realm where people of a particularly religious background went. Hence the religious setting and symbols and costumes.
I also want to mention the book by "former" Stargate program remote viewer Lyn Buchanan. (I say former because I don't think these guys are former anything, based on my own negative experiences with a different "past" participant in the Stargate program. That's another story.)
Lyn Buchanan's book was published by Paraview Books in 2003 and it's called The Seventh Sense. He describes doing all kinds of remote viewing assignments for the military, yada yada yada, it's all just boys and their bombs, boring, boring.
But there is one section that is a standout. He talks about remote viewing what happens to people after they die.
He went on many remote viewing sessions with that intention.
His data ended up being grouped into a small cluster of categories.
(From pages 177-179)
a) (People who went to) "heaven." (This place) "had all the attributes of the real world, except that everything there was perfect. There was an ambience of absolute and wonderful bliss. The sky was the deepest and most beautiful blue, every tree was perfectly formed, the grass made a perfect carpet, and there was an overwhelming sense of joy and happiness. I was never allowed to stay long in this place, but was, in effect, gently "ushered out" of the session by some unseen force after only a minute or so of being there. I was not able to reaccess the person who "passed over" in "present time viewing" again to find out what happened after that. This led me to assume that once there, they stayed."
b) "Hell. A good many people went through the death experience and immediately wound up in a place so dark that I can only describe it as "a glowing blackness." The blackness was so strong that it had its own presence. There was always the visual experience of a very dull and sinister orange glow with no real form or shape, just out of sight ahead. A good look at the dull orange glow was always blocked by some person-like "thing," which stood there, eagerly awaiting the just-dead person. I find it very hard to adequately describe the experience, which never lasted more than about a tenth of a second. The entire experience of the place was one of total and complete horror. I never actually saw anything that would cause the horror, but I was suddenly and helplessly overwhelmed by it nonetheless. After such a session, the fear and horror accompanied me home, into my dreams, and into my daily thoughts, and it was usually a week or more before I could do any effective viewing again of any target of any kind. I hated these targets. I was never able to "detox" from this experience."
c)"Oblivion. The third class of "places" where people went after death was no place at all. I would follow the person through the death experience and suddenly there would be no person at all. I could move back in time to before their death and would still be in touch with them, so I knew that I had not lost session contact. But if I moved forward again, beyond the moment of death, there was simply no person there. I've made searches for these people, but never found one of them again. They just stopped existing."
(Lipstick Mystic's note: Or - did they just break out of the Matrix and therefore were no longer trackable by remote viewing WITHIN the Matrix?)
d. "Reincarnation. A fourth fate appeared to be reincarnating into another life. The person would suddenly have other physical characteristics, different surroundings, different life situations, etc. There was a very strange and unexpected aspect about this type of person, though. I have always thought that reincarnation would involve the person coming back as a baby and beginning the life process all over again. This was not the case for those whom I accompanied through this process. Every one of them suddenly became a child of around twelve or thirteen years old. One of these even had the awareness of his new status as well as memories of his old life, and was, for a moment, very confused about it. I remember that this person had been some sort of political leader in the previous life, and at the moment of death, he suddenly found himself standing out in the front yard of a modern suburban-style American home. He found himself wearing a cowboy outfit, complete with furry chaps, cowboy hat, and all. He was standing witha cowboy pose and looking across the front yard at his parents, who were taking his picture and laughing. He did not know these people. He looked to his right and saw a younger sister. When he realized what had happened, he accepted the situation and I lost contact with "him." I had accompanied him as he became a new person." (End excerpts from book)
(Lipstick Mystic note - this might correlate with how people's energy bodies don't come in until certain ages; your physical body is the only energy body until about the age of two; then the emotional body links in; then around the age of five the intellectual/mental body hooks in; but the spiritual body/higher mind body doesn't hook in for most people until the onset of puberty or about the age of 12. This is why so many religious traditions (first Communion, bar and bat mitzahs, etc.,) celebrate the coming of age around that age. So perhaps Buchanan skipped ahead in time to remote view the instance when that little boy's spirit body fully linked in along with his higher mind? )
Buchanan also says he remote viewed at least one person who reincarnated into the PAST, and not the future. He saw a man who suddenly showed up in another life dressed in clothes and doing certain things in an era he later identified as Minoan period - pre-Hellenic Greek era.
Another writer who has assembled a great book about the afterlife is Dr. Shakuntala Modi whose book, Remarkable Healings, is a great work about spirit release therapy she does in her private psychiatric practice. But she also wrote another book called Memories of God and Creation: Remembering from the Subconscious Mind. It's somewhat reminscent of Delores Cannon's work because she retrieved information from people via hypnosis. But this book specifically focuses on people's experiences between lives, or pre-life, getting into their reasons for being born, framework for reality, etc. There is a lot of concensus material that kind of goes back to the "I came from Spirit to experience individualized consciousness in a 3-D body" theme. But there's interesting stuff, too, that is more unusual and controversial than the usual life before life book.
Okay, this is my regurgitation of ideas for now! Thanks for letting me share!
